REAVE - THE MANBOATSQUID

He's half man, half boat, half squid! Sculpted in Monster Clay and cast in polyurethane resin. The sails are heated and shaped by hand out of plastic - the same stuff they use for vacuum forming!

I'm no character designer, so I was sort of making this one up as I went - altering the pose and so on. I knew he was going to be a man-boat... that was the extent of my planning phase.

Final Photos are at the bottom of this post.

Oh boy! He comes in many forms... Including a crustier metal version. I've got ideas for other variations too, just to try out some new materials.
